die setting

Dear Reloaders:
I tried neck-sizing, back in the days of the good old "tong Tool." What I found, even with a press, was that after neck-sizing several times the case got elongated from not full length sizing that the bolt would close hard even with anealing the necks.
Maybe I was doing something wrong but that's my experience - I like full length sizing so that the shoulder of the case is just barely touched assuring a constant feel on the bolt and zero headspace. And, I realize that this way your dies are only set for THAT rifle! Anyway, thanks for the thougts! Harry B.
